Recs - FFVIII, FFIX, FFX-2, Firefly, Good Omens, Kingdom Hearts

[wilderthan]

Last time, del.icio.us spazzed on me a bit and didn't show all the fics I'd bookmarked to rec. Being somewhat in pain at the time (first day of trying to get healthier by cycling a lot: owww, my butt), I didn't realise. So you can have them (and some newer ones) now. :D As ever, if you watch my del.icio.us or talk to me a lot, you've probably seen them. You might even have saved the bookmark originally only for me to steal it shamelessly. XD

Fic

Final Fantasy VIII

Time of the Ghost, by baka_neko
Character: Ultimecia (background Seifer/Fujin)
Rating: PG
Teaser: Time doesn't run for her. She killed it, long ago, on the doorstep of her house, because of a fairy tale.
Notes: Brilliant. Timefuckery and angst.

Doors Lock For A Reason, by irishais
Characters: Seifer, Raijin
Rating: PG
Teaser: "...If you just kissed me, you're dead."
Notes: Ahahahaha. Ehehehehe.

Final Fantasy IX

Understudy, by moonpants
Pairing: Zidane/Garnet
Rating: G
Teaser: That was one thing he did understand. It was opening night, and he was Marcus, and he was Zidane; and somewhere out there was a princess waiting, waiting for her happy ending.
Notes: Not quite your average happy ending.

Final Fantasy X-2

Touch, by Micayasha
Pairing: Gippal/Baralai
Rating: PG13
Teaser: So when Baralai had him pinned to the wall of his office, tearing off his epaulets and fumbling with the button of his pants, something clicked in Gippal’s mind and he leaned a little further into their kiss and began to stroke along the back of Baralai’s neck.
Notes: Hooootttt.

Firefly

None So Blind, by BlackEyedGirl
Pairing: Mal/Simon
Rating: R
Teaser: ‘Twenty-eight days, doc. Either I’m cured or I’m not gonna be.’
Notes: Hard to pick a teaser for this, because it's a ten part thing. It's well worth reading. Mal/Simon built up wonderfully, plus my small thing for blindness in fic, plus a happy ending and good characterisation of all the crew... yeah. ♥ And it ignores the movie, which is just fine with me.

Smooth, by scribblinlenore
Pairing: Mal/Simon
Rating: NC17
Teaser: Simple. Smooth. That was all Mal asked. The way Simon was looking at him, the way Mal wasn't exactly minding it, wasn't neither of those things.
Notes: Good build up and hot sex. :D

Good Omens

Comfort and Joy, by penknifewrites
Pairing: Crowley/Aziraphale
Rating: PG
Teaser: Crowley had been kissed thousands of times before, but never quite so awkwardly, he thought, with quite so many elbows in the wrong places. He'd also never felt himself quite so close to remembering exactly how someone's warm wings felt brushing against his own.
Notes: Hee. Holiday joy. XD

The True Test Of Good, by mizzmarvel
Pairing: Crowley/Aziraphale
Rating: PG13ish
Teaser: You're as miserable as the weather, alone in this humble obsession of yours. But oh, you are so very good.
Notes: Aaaangst. ;_;

And When He Falls, by torch
Pairing: Crowley/Aziraphale
Rating: PG13
Teaser: "You've got scales on your — er. Dear me."
Notes: You know what I'm going to say. Hee.

Kingdom Hearts II

The Daily Grind, by tsukimeushi
Character: Leon
Rating: G
Notes: Angsty Leon! ♥

YAYYYYY ANGSTY LEON

What's weird is that I thought it looked a wee bit familiar (aside from being Leon). Then I logged in to favorite it and I saw that I already had. Plus I read the author's note and remembered it, so LAWL. I should stop being so obsessed with Leon! XD

Twas moi who just commented. SILLY ME.

Haha. Leon's awesome, anyway. Obsession is a-okay. XD
